Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of mechanics, specifically to an unlocking knob for the power panel of a quadruped robot. Background Technology

[0002] Quadruped robots are special legged robots. Compared with the commonly used wheeled robots, their advantage lies in their high adaptability to special terrains, making them widely applicable in various fields.

[0003] However, a robot's ability to perform a task depends on various indicators such as its reaction speed, level of intelligence, and battery life. Battery life, in particular, determines its ability to work for extended periods. Therefore, the power supply or battery installed on a quadruped robot needs regular replacement or maintenance. However, the current process of handling, replacing, and maintaining batteries / power supplies presents the following problems: The battery / power supply is housed in the battery compartment and connected to the robot's internal circuitry. To prevent loss and external damage, it is typically enclosed by a panel or other casing and secured with multiple screws. Therefore, each time the power supply is replaced or maintained, multiple screws must be manually removed using a screwdriver or electric disassembly tool to remove the panel or casing. This disassembly process is cumbersome, inconvenient, and reduces worker efficiency. Furthermore, due to the small size of the screws, there is a risk of them being accidentally dropped and lost during disassembly.

[0004] Therefore, there is a need for an unlocking knob that can quickly and directly remove or install the panel or housing on the power supply, simplifying the tedious screw-tightening process and improving work efficiency. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a power panel unlocking knob for a quadruped robot that allows for quick disassembly or installation of the power panel without the need for other tools, thereby preventing the loss of docking components and reducing the possibility of unauthorized disassembly.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: A power panel unlocking knob for a quadruped robot includes a frame and a power panel, which are detachably connected to the frame. The power panel has a locking element and a knob, with the knob located at the end of the locking element away from the frame. The power panel has a through hole for the locking element to move. The frame has a docking seat. The knob controls the locking element to enter the docking seat, and rotating the knob allows the locking element to be detached from the docking seat. The power panel also has a control button for controlling the locking element to exit the docking seat. When the locking element is connected to the docking seat, the knob is located inside the power panel. The locking element has a cylindrical structure, and the knob is connected to the locking element via a support rod. A limiting ring is provided at the end of the through hole away from the frame, and the inner diameter of the through hole, the outer diameter of the locking element, the inner diameter of the limiting ring, and the outer diameter of the support rod decrease sequentially. Compared with existing technologies, the power panel unlock knob of the quadruped robot, which adopts the above technical solution, has the following advantages: The quadruped robot power panel unlocking knob of this invention controls the connection or separation of the locking component and the docking seat by turning the knob. It can achieve quick docking or disassembly between the power panel and the frame without the need for screwdrivers or other auxiliary tools, and without the need for easily lost parts such as screws. It is convenient and efficient to use, shortens the time spent on disassembling the power panel, and improves the efficiency of workers.

[0007] Furthermore, when the knob is locked, the knob component is hidden or recessed into the power panel, avoiding the problem of the knob protruding from the outside of the power panel (and bumping into other objects). Since the knob is located in the power panel, the area where the knob can be gripped by fingers is small or the fingers cannot contact the knob at all, thus preventing the knob from being turned. This prevents others from turning it at will to unlock it, effectively reducing the risk of the quadruped robot's internal battery / power supply being stolen.

[0008] While improving the security of assets such as batteries / power supplies, the power panel can only be disassembled through unlocking methods known to staff, such as using a specific control button to remove the locking mechanism from the docking seat, eliminating the need to turn the knob, simplifying the unlocking process and further reducing the time required to disassemble the power panel.

[0009] After the locking member and the docking seat are released from their connection, the movement path of the locking member can be restricted by a limiting ring, a limiting protrusion, or a baffle. Such a limiting structure can be the solution in the two embodiments of this case, or it can be a single blocking structure or multiple blocking structures to limit the locking member. However, considering the sealing performance of the structure, it is preferable to use a limiting ring to limit the movement path of the locking member.

[0010] This limiting ring prevents the locking element and knob from directly detaching from the perforation (or power panel). After the power panel is removed, the locking element and knob remain on the power panel, effectively preventing the loss of connecting parts and facilitating subsequent quick installation.

[0011] This patent allows both the locking element and the support rod to move within the perforation by defining their outer and inner diameters. The support rod can continue to move within the limiting ring to allow the knob to control the locking element at the other end of the support rod. Furthermore, the outer diameter of the locking element exceeds the inner diameter of the limiting ring, thus restricting the movement path of the locking element. While fulfilling the limiting purpose, the overall integrity of the ring structure, when in contact with the knob, reduces the probability of external substances (such as moisture) entering the battery / power supply compartment, thereby improving battery / power supply lifespan.

[0012] In this case, the locking element can be used for threaded connection, insertion, or other connection structures with the docking seat. The appropriate option can be selected based on usage requirements. For example, by directly rotating the knob, the locking element can be threadedly connected or disengaged from the docking seat, effectively simplifying the docking operation and allowing workers to operate directly, thereby further improving work efficiency. Alternatively, the solution mentioned below satisfies both the quick operation of direct rotation and the ability to quickly unlock in conjunction with the control button. Preferably, the outer circumferential surface of the locking element has a protrusion, and the docking seat has an inclined locking groove. The locking groove extends from the inside of the docking seat towards the power panel to form a slot through which the protrusion can pass. The bottom of the locking groove has a locking block to restrict the movement of the protrusion. After the protrusion enters the slot, rotating the knob causes the protrusion to gradually approach the locking block.

[0013] After the protrusion is inserted into the locking groove through the slot, rotating the knob causes the protrusion to be forced to penetrate deeper into the mating seat along the inclined locking groove. The locking block limits the protrusion, thus fixing the state of the locking component and the knob. When the locking block limits the protrusion, the knob is in a state where it cannot move further. When the operator receives this feedback, they can know that the knob has been turned to the end and locked, avoiding unnecessary rotation operations and further improving the efficiency of the operator.

[0014] Preferably, the locking block is connected to the docking seat via a rotating shaft, and a spiral spring is provided at the rotating shaft. An elastic element is provided inside the docking seat. The locking block has a limiting groove on the side facing the locking groove for inserting the locking block. Both the protrusion and the locking block have ramps on their outer sides. A linkage component is provided between the control button and the rotating shaft. Pressing the control button separates the locking block from the protrusion. Utilizing the extension and reset effect of the spiral spring, during the rotation of the locking member, the protrusion presses against the locking block. Guided by the ramp, the rotating shaft is forced to move the locking block, allowing the protrusion to smoothly pass through the ramp. After the locking block resets, the protrusion enters the limiting groove, thus fixing the locking member's position. Simultaneously, the rotating shaft can be controlled by the linkage component to actively control the movement of the locking block, thereby releasing the locking member from its fixed state after the protrusion disengages from the limiting groove. The elastic element can also be used to push the locking member outwards from the power panel, causing the protrusion to pass through the locking groove and the slot in sequence, and pushing the locking member out of the docking seat, achieving a quick unlocking effect.

[0015] Preferably, the linkage assembly includes a movable rod and a rigid rope. The movable rod is movably mounted in the docking seat, and the two ends of the rigid rope are respectively connected to the movable rod and the rotating shaft. Pressing the control button causes the movable rod to move synchronously. Utilizing the pulling force of the rigid rope, while controlling the displacement of the movable rod, one side of the rotating shaft is pulled, causing the rotating shaft to drive the locking block to rotate.

[0016] Preferably, the power panel has a groove for the knob to enter and exit, and the groove is connected to the through hole. When the locking member is connected to the docking seat, the side of the knob facing the locking member is in contact with the bottom of the groove. In the state where the power panel and the frame are connected, the knob is hidden by placing it in the groove, and the fit between the knob and the groove further increases the sealing performance of the structure.

[0017] Preferably, the outer side of the knob is provided with a sealing ring made of elastic material, and the groove is a circular groove adapted to the knob. The sealing ring forms an isolation layer between the outer side of the knob and the inner wall of the groove to further reduce the probability of moisture and other substances entering the battery / power compartment.

[0018] Preferably, the groove is smoothly connected to the perforation via a tapered portion, and the knob has a mating portion adapted to the tapered portion on the side facing the frame, with a sealing layer on the mating portion. Utilizing the special structure of the tapered portion contracting inwards towards the perforation, and the insulating effect of the sealing layer, another insulating layer is formed between the sealing ring and the perforation to further prevent moisture from entering the battery / power compartment.

[0019] Preferably, the outer surface of the power panel is also provided with a countersunk groove for hand movement, the groove being located at the bottom of the countersunk groove. Utilizing the special structure of the countersunk groove recessed into the power panel, the knob is further inserted into the interior of the power panel; and the countersunk groove facilitates pushing the knob in and rotating it to lock it, but makes it inconvenient to grasp the knob further inside, further reducing the possibility of unauthorized unlocking and disassembly.

[0020] Preferably, the power panel is provided with a plug-in block, and the frame is provided with a slot for the plug-in block. When the plug-in block is inserted into the slot, the mating seat aligns with the through hole. The mating and fixing between the plug-in block and the slot increases the stability of the connection between the power panel and the frame. Furthermore, since the slot on the frame is fixed in position, it effectively guides the installation direction of the power panel during installation, and the through hole automatically aligns with the mating seat. This allows for quick installation of the power panel without much consideration, making it convenient to use. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The present invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0035] Example 1:

[0036] like Figures 10 to 12 The quadruped robot shown includes a power panel unlock knob, frame 0, and power panel 1.

[0037] The power panel 1 and the frame 0 are two separate components. The frame 0 is provided with a docking seat 4, and the power panel 1 is provided with a through hole 10 and a fastener. The fastener passes through the through hole 10 and is detachably connected to the docking seat 4.

[0038] There are various ways to connect the fastener and the docking seat 4, such as insert snap-fit ​​or threaded connection. In this embodiment, a threaded connection is used for ease of use. That is, the docking seat 4 has an internal thread. The fastener consists of a locking member 2, a support rod 30, and a knob 3 for finger gripping. The locking member 2 and the knob 3 are connected by the support rod 30. The knob 3 is located at the outer end of the support rod 30. The locking member 2 of the fastener passes through the through hole 10 and is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the docking seat 4.

[0039] To prevent the fasteners from being lost and to facilitate subsequent use, a limiting ring 11 is provided at the outer end of the perforation 10. The inner diameter of the perforation 10, the outer diameter of the locking part 2, the inner diameter of the limiting ring 11, and the outer diameter of the support rod 30 decrease in sequence. In addition, the width of the knob 3 also exceeds the diameter of the limiting ring 11.

[0040] Both the locking element 2 and the support rod 30 can move in the through hole 10, but the support rod 30 can pass through the middle of the limiting ring 11, while the locking element 2 cannot pass through the middle of the limiting ring 11.

[0041] To prevent the knob 3 from protruding from the power panel 1, the outer surface of the power panel 1 is also provided with a countersunk groove 14 for hand movement. The through hole 10 is located at the bottom of the countersunk groove 14, the knob 3 is located inside the countersunk groove 14, and the outer end of the knob 3 does not extend beyond the end face where the opening of the countersunk groove 14 is located.

[0042] The power panel 1 has a plug block 90 on its surface and the frame 0 has a slot 91. When the plug block 90 is inserted into the slot 91, the through hole 10 is aligned with the docking seat 4, which facilitates direct docking of the fasteners.

[0043] To increase the stability of the connection between the power panel 1 and the frame 0, and to achieve a fixing effect on multiple different points on the power panel 1 and the frame 0, the power panel 1 can adopt a rectangular structure or other structures with smooth edges. In this embodiment, there are two slots 91 and two plug-in blocks 90, and two through holes 10 and two docking seats 4. The two plug-in blocks 90 are located on the upper edge of the power panel 1 near the end, and the two docking seats 4 are located in the middle of the power panel 1.

[0044] The following is how this embodiment is used: Under normal conditions, the power panel 1 is fixed to the frame 0. If the power supply / battery needs to be replaced or maintained, pinch the knob 3 and rotate it. This causes the locking element 2 to rotate within the docking seat 4 via the support rod 30. The locking element 2 gradually disengages from the docking seat 4, and the support rod 30 moves in the middle of the limit rod until the locking element 2 is blocked by the limit ring 11. At this point, the locking element 2 separates from the docking seat 4, and the fixing element cannot move further. Then, the operator holds the left and right sides of the power panel 1 with both hands and pulls it downwards, causing the plug block 90 to disengage from the slot 91 on the frame 0, thus separating the power panel 1 from the frame 0. The power compartment / battery compartment is then exposed to the outside and can be replaced or maintained.

[0045] After the power panel 1 is removed, due to the blocking effect of the limiting ring 11 on the locking part 2 and the large structure of the knob 3, the power panel 1 can move freely without the fixing parts coming off. After replacement or maintenance, align the plug block 90 on the edge of the power panel 1 with the slot 91 of the frame 0 and insert it. At this time, align the through hole 10 with the docking seat 4, and rotate the knob 3 in reverse to thread the locking part 2 and the docking seat 4, thus re-fixing the power panel 1 and the frame 0.

[0046] Example 2:

[0047] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the technical content of this embodiment is basically the same as that of Embodiment 1. The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 lies in the following technical points: The power panel 1 is equipped with a locking element 2 and a knob 3. The knob 3 is connected to the locking element 2 via a support rod 30, and the knob 3 is located at the end of the locking element 2 away from the frame 0. The knob 3 can control the locking element 2 to enter the docking seat 4, and rotating the knob 3 can separate the locking element 2 from the docking seat 4.

[0048] The locking element 2 is a cylindrical structure, and the outer peripheral surface of the locking element 2 is provided with a protrusion 6.

[0049] The docking seat 4 of the frame 0 is inclinedly provided with a locking groove 40. The locking groove 40 extends from the inside of the docking seat 4 toward the power panel 1 to form a slot 41 through which the protrusion 6 can pass. The bottom of the locking groove 40 is provided with a snap-fit ​​block 7 for restricting the movement of the protrusion 6.

[0050] The latching block 7 can restrict the protrusion 6 in various ways, such as plug-in fixation, magnetic block adsorption fixation, or other limiting structures. In this embodiment, to facilitate subsequent quick unlocking, the latching block 7 is connected to the docking seat 4 via a rotating shaft 70, and a spiral spring is provided at the rotating shaft 70. The two ends of the spiral spring are respectively connected to the rotating shaft 70 and the interior of the docking seat 4. An elastic element 42 (such as a return spring or a high-elastic material) is provided inside the docking seat 4. The latching block 7 has a limiting groove 71 on the side facing the locking groove 40 for the latching block to be inserted. Both the protrusion 6 and the outer side of the latching block 7 are provided with ramps 60.

[0051] The power panel 1 is also provided with a control button 5 for controlling the locking member 2 to exit the docking seat 4. A linkage component 8 is provided between the control button 5 and the rotating shaft 70. The linkage component 8 includes a movable rod 80 and a rigid rope 81.

[0052] Two elastic elements 42 are provided. One elastic element 42 is located at the position of the locking element 2 corresponding to the docking seat 4, and the other elastic element 42 is located inside the docking seat 4 between the movable rod 80.

[0053] The movable rod 80 is movably mounted in the docking seat 4. The two ends of the rigid rope 81 are connected to the movable rod 80 and the rotating shaft 70 respectively. When the control button 5 is pressed, the movable rod 80 is moved synchronously, so that the locking block 7 and the protrusion 6 are separated.

[0054] Furthermore, to prevent others from arbitrarily turning the knob 3 to remove the power panel 1, in this embodiment, when the locking member 2 is connected to the docking seat 4, the knob 3 is located inside the power panel 1.

[0055] To achieve the effect of the knob 3 being concealed inside the power panel 1 in the locked state, the power panel 1 in this embodiment is provided with a groove 12 for the knob 3 to enter and exit, and the groove 12 is connected to the through hole 10. The groove 12 is located at the bottom of the countersunk groove 14. When the locking member 2 is connected to the docking seat 4, the side of the knob 3 facing the locking member 2 is in contact with the bottom of the groove 12.

[0056] To facilitate the use of the quadruped robot in humid or rainy environments and prevent moisture from entering the power / battery compartment, the groove 12 is smoothly connected to the perforation 10 via the conical part 13. The knob 3 has a mating part 32 on the side facing the frame 0 that is adapted to the conical part 13, and the mating part 32 is provided with a sealing layer of elastic material. At the same time, the outer side of the knob 3 is provided with a sealing ring 31 made of elastic material, and the groove 12 is a circular groove adapted to the knob 3.

[0057] In addition, if it is necessary to further prevent others from disassembling the power panel 1 at will, the control button 5 can also be a touch button with fingerprint recognition. The frame 0 is equipped with a corresponding receiving circuit, which can control the displacement of the movable rod 80 through electronic control.

[0058] The following is how this embodiment is used: Under normal conditions, knob 3 is completely located within groove 12. If it is necessary to replace or maintain the power supply / battery, knob 3 cannot be turned directly as in embodiment 1. Instead, control button 5 can be pressed to unlock it.

[0059] like Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, control button 5 simultaneously presses the movable rod 80 and elastic element 42, causing the rigid rope 81 to pull one side of the rotating shaft 70. The rotating shaft 70 drives the locking block 7 to rotate, causing the protrusion 6 to gradually disengage from the limiting groove 71 in the middle of the locking block 7, thus releasing the limiting effect on the locking element 2. Since the two elastic elements 42 in this embodiment are relatively independent, while the locking element 2 is unrestricted, the elastic element 42 on the right side of the figure pushes the locking element 2, and the protrusion 6 moves in the locking groove 40 until the protrusion 6 disengages from the slot 41, realizing the separation of the docking seat 4 and the locking element 2.

[0060] At this point, referring to the method in Embodiment 1, pull the power panel 1 so that the plug block 90 disengages from the slot 91 on the frame 0, and successfully remove the power panel 1. The power compartment / battery compartment is then exposed to the outside world and can be replaced or maintained.

[0061] After replacement or maintenance is completed, align the plug block 90 on the edge of the power panel 1 with the slot 91 of the frame 0 and insert it. At this time, align the through hole 10 with the mating seat 4, and push the knob 3 towards the frame 0 so that the protrusion 6 re-enters the slot 41. Rotate the knob 3 to make the protrusion 6 move in the locking groove 40 and gradually approach the snap-fit ​​block 7. Figure 7As shown, when the ramp 60 of the protrusion 6 comes into contact with the ramp 60 of the locking block 7, the knob 3 is rotated slightly to increase the pressure of the protrusion 6 on the ramp 60 of the locking block 7, so that the locking block 7 rotates around the pivot 70. The protrusion 6 is guided by the ramp 60 to pass smoothly through the ramp 60, and the spiral spring drives the locking block 7 to reset. The entire protrusion 6 enters the limiting groove 71, realizing the limiting effect on the locking part 2, that is, completing the re-fixing of the power panel 1 and the frame 0.

[0062] The above description is a preferred embodiment of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention, and these should also be considered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
